Parents/Guardians All of the PM rural routes tomorrow (8/23) and Thursday(8/24) will be running 10-15 minutes later than normal. These include PC (Steve), Cabery North(Karen), Cabery Stelle (Jim), Cullom W (Shelly) and Cullom E (Bob). This will allow students and drivers that have been on the bus the opportunity to go into the building to get a quick drink and cool off. We will also have cold water available on each bus as well. Please note that if you are planning to have your child become a car rider rather than a bus rider, please notify the school tomorrow morning as soon as possible as that may change our routes. Thank you.
